Checking Your Installation

If you have installed CA ControlMinder successfully, you will notice the following changes:

A new key is added to the Windows registry:
```
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ComputerAssociates\AccessControl
```
While CA ControlMinder is running, the CA ControlMinder keys and sub-keys are protected and you can modify the keys only through CA ControlMinder Endpoint Management or by using selang commands. However, you do not need to use CA ControlMinder Endpoint Management or selang commands to read the keys and values.
When you restart your computer, several new CA ControlMinder services start automatically. These services include the Watchdog, Engine, and Agent, which are always installed. Other services, such as Task Delegation, exist depending on the options you chose during installation. The Display name for all CA ControlMinder services begins with "CA ControlMinder". You can check what services are installed, and verify that these services are running, using Windows Services Manager.
